Chapter 408 [(*^▽^*)]
Lin Leyou couldn't see their chat content, which made her feel uneasy. She didn't know what plans they were discussing or if they were talking about her.
Just as they were chatting, Ding Baishuang suddenly said, "She's with me!"
Everyone gasped and stopped chatting, waiting for Ding Baishuang's reply.
The female secretary did appear at Ding Baishuang's place. She did not attack anyone there, but instead strolled around slowly, her eyes scanning the employees working there, even scrutinizing whether they were actually working.
She didn't find anything unusual or anyone slacking off, so she turned and left. The sound of her high heels gradually faded away and disappeared into the distance, near the elevator.
Ding Baishuang didn't know if she had really left, and continued to work while staring at the computer screen. In this office, besides her, there were two other people who were trembling with fear when they saw the female secretary, but fortunately they were still working. The female secretary's gaze fell on them the most.
After waiting for five minutes, Ding Baishuang was sure that she had really left, and then replied in the group, "She came for a look around, it seems she was checking on the work, and then she left."
Xue Rui, "You didn't kill anyone?"
Ding Baishuang: "No."
Xue Rui pondered for a moment, then asked, "What does everyone think?"
Zhou Feng said, "If I'm not mistaken, this elite monster's hunting method is different from the previous two. The rules she says cannot be violated. Once a rule is violated, she can instantly teleport to the person's side and kill them."
Huajiao took a deep breath. "So we really have to work diligently at our posts all night? And this is a ghost, doesn't she come up with some bizarre rules to deliberately make us break them?"
Xue Rui: "That's probably impossible. The rules she sets are based on company regulations. They can be strict, but they can never be impossible to meet."
Fang Hong said, "But Captain, even if we can avoid breaking the rules, how do we kill her? In my opinion, if this elite monster survives, it will be more troublesome than the two elite monsters we encountered before."
"With her around, we can't break the rules. If another elite monster is there to assist us and chase us down, we can only run. Once we run, that's considered breaking the rules, and he'll teleport over and kill us."
Xue Rui frowned slightly. Fang Hong was right. In a sense, this elite monster was indeed more troublesome than the others. If they let her survive tonight, there would be no chance of winning again.
At this moment, Lin Leyou, who was on the top floor, also realized where his teleportation skill came from. It turned out to be the skill of this elite female secretary monster—teleportation…
The condition for her teleportation is that an employee working overtime violates her rules of not conflicting with the company; in that case, she can teleport to that person's side in the next second.
Whether she can escape is still unknown. The female secretary killed a regular background NPC, not a player.
Surviving tonight isn't too difficult; the challenge lies in killing this elite monster without breaking the rules!
"Huajiao, let's discuss this! What should we do? How do we kill this female secretary?!"
Nobody had any good solutions, and right now...
Xue Rui: "We can't find the exact location of this elite monster right now. Everyone, please set up any monitoring devices you have. If you can find it, please report the location as soon as possible."
Everyone quietly took out their monitoring equipment from their backpacks and released it. They searched from the first floor to the 42nd floor, and even the 43rd floor. On the 43rd floor, they only saw the remaining two elite monsters and did not see the female secretary at all. Was she hiding?
Pepper was terrified. "Could they be hiding and secretly watching us to see if we've broken any rules? Speaking of which, what constitutes a rule? Is going to the toilet a rule? Are other ordinary ghosts going out to ambush ordinary NPCs a rule?"
Everyone was thinking about it, but they couldn't very well go out and try it themselves, could they? Right now... the night had only just begun, and none of them should make any rash moves.
Zhou Feng: "My surveillance footage has spotted that female secretary. She's killing someone on the 33rd floor! It's a gamer, and he's escaped! The female secretary is chasing him!"
Upon seeing Zhou Fengfa's message, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that this elite monster could only teleport to the violator's side instantly, but killing the violator still depended on her own efforts.
Xue Rui, "Did the player run away?"
While asking questions, everyone frantically sent their surveillance equipment to the 33rd floor to see the live footage, hoping to gain a better understanding.
This player was quite fast; by the time they found the player being chased by the female secretary, the two of them had already reached the 21st floor!
In just two or three minutes, they had descended more than ten floors. It seems that this elite monster was chasing them very closely!
Zhou Feng said, "This player used a lot of items to hide himself, but the elite monster found him. I guess ordinary hiding items are useless. Even if you hide on the wall outside the building, you will be found by her. The elite monster can probably locate all the people who violate the rules until you kill them."
Xue Rui just happened to see the player open the window and climb out, carrying climbing gear, and quickly climb upstairs. The female secretary leaned out, her dark eyes fixed on the player above. Then her fingernails became extremely sharp, and she climbed out without even needing any gear!
The player above had probably already witnessed it, so he didn't panic this time. He knew that if he continued to climb, he would definitely be caught up by the elite monsters behind him, so he quickly returned to the inside of the floor to continue his escape!
Everyone is watching to see how long the female secretary can keep chasing him, whether she will keep chasing him until she kills him, or whether there is a time limit, since this elite monster is not particularly fast.
If someone can hold them off in front, it should buy a lot of time, making it easier to kill the elite monsters tonight.
However, these are all based on current reasoning, and we will have to wait and see the specifics.
This player who broke the rules was probably thinking of testing this elite monster and gathering more information. He definitely had a backup plan, since the players who are still alive all have their own teams.
It's not just Xue Rui and his team; other player teams are also paying attention to the situation here, and they can even see a lot of surveillance and tracking devices along the way.
The larger ones swagger onto the road, even on walls, or even fly around to follow you, without any fear of being discovered.
The elite monster only focused on the person it was chasing ahead, completely ignoring how many small creatures were following behind it. It chased for ten minutes before finally stopping.
She stood still for a few seconds, seemingly giving up, but soon everyone realized that wasn't the case. Gradually, her originally fair and rosy skin turned pale, her once bright eyes turned black, and her manicured nails, which had looked beautiful, turned black and became pointed.
At this moment, she shrieked in the direction the player was fleeing, and chased after them in her high-heeled boots, now twice as fast as before!
Of course, this speed is fast, but it's still not as fast as yesterday's elite monster 05. However, it's still enough to startle the player who was secretly observing from the corner ahead.
What else could we do? Of course, we kept running. I never expected this elite monster could transform!
This speed is still acceptable. The player being chased is probably very good at escaping. Even when the elite monsters behind him transformed and doubled their speed, they still couldn't catch up with him.
The elite monster would occasionally shriek from behind and try to grab him with its sharp claws, but it always failed, either because the distance was too great or because the monster dodged it.
Just then, the player took out a gun from his backpack and fired two shots behind him, hitting him squarely in the forehead!
After being hit in the forehead by the two shots, the elite monster leaned back and stopped chasing, its eyes staring blankly ahead.
The player who had just fired did not take the opportunity to escape, but continued to fire seven or eight more shots at her head, especially at her wide-open eyes.
There were bullets that hit his eyes, and not just one or two. He was a very good shot; out of so many shots, four bullets hit his eyes, averaging two bullets per eye.
Two lines of black, bloody tears flowed from his dark, hollow eye sockets, gathering below his cheeks and dripping onto the ground.
After standing there blankly for a while, the elite monster suddenly laughed. The corners of her mouth split open, all the way to behind her ears, and her mouth was filled with sharp barbs.
So is this the second transformation? After all, there are more differences compared to the first transformation.
This one looks a bit like the first elite monster that appeared, with a mouth like a seven-star eel. The player being chased didn't waste any time; he immediately ate a speed-up potion and turned to run away!
Just as he had run a short distance forward, the elite monster suddenly pushed off with both legs without any warning, and landed less than two meters away from the player!
With a swift grab of its two clawed arms, the player nearly got caught on the hem of their clothes by the elite monster's claws—it was so close!
The player was clearly not scared at all, and then ran forward recklessly. Fortunately, even if today's elite monster was fast, it couldn't compare to the one from last night.
After being chased for a while, he regained his composure and continued to lead the elite monster up and down the building, a chase that lasted for more than half an hour.
Instead of feeling relieved, all the players felt heavy-hearted upon seeing this. The elite monster's abilities should be much more than this. The more ordinary it appears now, the more difficult it will be to kill it later!
Xue Rui observed her intently, "What exactly is this ability...?"
